Greetings from the Salton Sea – California’s largest lake. In its heyday, this body of water was called the Southern California Riviera, attracting people from across the country.Decades later, this desert oasis is now dying. “It smells like death you know,” said one local man. “You can tell something died.”The Salton Sea is stinking and shrinking and what’s left is a being called a major health hazard.“The Salton Sea has gone to hell if you ask me,” another man said. “We used to go fishing there before and you can’t go fishing there anymore because there’s nothing to fish for because it’s polluted.”The sea is polluted with sewage, heavy metals and agricultural run off.With no natural run off and not much rain coming in, the Salton Sea has been decaying for decades. Experts say now the conditions are getting worse and the problems go well past county lines. “All of that dust on windy days gets aerosolized and people can inhale it for hundreds of miles actually,” said Sam J. Weiss, MD of Eisenhower Health in Palm Desert, Ca. Weiss says Imperial County’s air quality is some of the worst in the state.And as the Salton Sea dries up, more dangerous dust goes into the air and ultimately gets into people’s lungs. “If it becomes drier and drier and saltier and saltier we’ll see more and more problems unless there’s remediation of the sea,” Weiss said. In an attempt to slow down this problem, the Imperial Irrigation District dug trenches to suppress the dust.“IID models all of our project areas to control the most dust as possible,” said Jessica Humes of the Imperial Irrigation District. Humes says the Salton Sea is twice as salty as the Pacific Ocean and that ratio is impacting wildlife. “It is reducing reproduction of fish, fish are eaten by birds, and if there’s no fish, that causes a huge issue for them,” she said.Humes went on to say that the Salton Sea has more than 20,000 acres of dusty ground exposed -- a number she expects to increase overtime. “This boat dock had water in it over 10 years ago,” she said. “Today completely dry and the Salton Sea is hundreds of yards away.”Conditions are so bad that local leaders recently made an emergency declaration over air quality. “I’m worried about the impacts that are unknown and the sea receding so fast that you can’t plan for it,” SAID Ryan Kelley, chairman of the Imperial County Board of SupervisorsKelley says this is the latest bid to save the Salton Sea. And if the state recognizes this request – it puts rehabilitation efforts on a fast track to happen now.“If they were to listen to what our concerns are and to take up our emergency they could get back to neutral on what they promised to do under the management program,” he said. California Governor Gavin Newsom's office sent us a statement saying, ” The Salton Sea is an urgent issue, and we are intensely focused on solutions. The state is reviewing the Imperial County Board of Supervisors’ action, but we are not waiting to act on projects that can help. Several efforts are already underway to address Salton Sea-related air quality issues, including dust suppression and collaboration with local, state and federal agencies.”Meanwhile, those that live here recognize the problems are at their doorstep“The sea all winter long was full of pelicans,” said Mary Jane Mulrooney, who has been living near the Salton Sea for more than 30 years. “Now you don’t see any pelicans.” Mulrooney says she’s tired of watching this lake waste away.“It’s sad that nobody cares enough to save it,” she said. Now she and others hope this latest effort reignites a sense of urgency and ultimately action. 3648

Former Attorney General William "Bill" Barr, President Donald Trump's pick to lead the Justice Department, reached a decisive and controversial conclusion that Trump's interactions with ex-FBI Director James Comey would not constitute obstruction of justice, according to a copy of a newly released June 2018 memo to senior Justice officials.The fact that Barr weighed in on such a sensitive issue and would be poised to oversee special counsel Robert Mueller's work, if confirmed as attorney general, will undoubtedly now thrust his nomination into greater controversy.Barr has not shied away from 611

Getting immersed in nature is a right we all share. However, access to the wilderness isn't always easy."As creatures on this planet, we are intrinsically tied to the land," says Amanda Jameson, donor relations manager with Big City Mountaineers. "Whether we get to experience that day-to-day is a matter, often, of privilege."The national nonprofit Big City Mountaineers aims to teach critical life skills in youth by offering transformative outdoor experiences.After a week-long backpacking expedition, four teenage girls unpack and clean their gear. For most, it was their very first time spending the night under the stars."They got us out, taught us how to set up a tent, taught us how to get water, how to cook outside… just the basics," Jacqueline Jimenez says. Thanks to Big City Mountaineers, Jimenez says she has discovered a newfound love for the outdoors. "I didn't think I'd like the outdoors as much as I liked it. I didn't think I would enjoy backpacking, carrying like 40-pound bags on my back," she says. "But I enjoyed it so much, and it’s something I want to look forward to, and incorporate into my life."Jameson says Big City Mountaineers offers trips at no cost to the youth, so those who wouldn’t normally get outside, get a chance to get outside. The organization has impacted the lives of metropolitan youth in Denver, Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, Minneapolis and Boston for the past 30 years. The kids are chosen for the trips through school and community partnerships."If you're trying to give your kids these experiences, it can be very expensive," Jameson says. "And then, you're talking about getting the time off, and trying to find a place to go, and making reservations, and planning in advance. All of those things can be difficult."However, Big City Mountaineers takes the difficulty out of it. Jameson says the week-long expeditions and overnight camps teach life skills, but not the transformation. That comes from within."The resilience, the tenacity, the problem-solving. All of these are skills that our youth already have," Jameson says. "By putting them in an unfamiliar environment in situations that they may have never encountered before, we're just allowing them to make those skills more explicit for themselves."Jimenez says that was certainly true for her, and she's packing away lessons of her own strength to carry with her through the rest of her life. "I'm so thankful for BCM for believing in me when I didn't believe in myself, and pushing my limits that I didn't even know I had," she says.

House Democrats vowed to press ahead on Thursday with plans to pass a legislative package that would reopen shuttered parts of the federal government without providing any new money for President Donald Trump's promised border wall -- despite a White House veto threat.Newly elected House Speaker Nancy Pelosi criticized the President's wall as "a waste of money" and "an immorality" during a news conference hours after reclaiming the gavel in the new Congress and ahead of an expected House vote later Thursday on the legislative package.The partial government shutdown stretched into its 13th day on Thursday, when the new Democratic House majority was sworn in.House Democrats plan to vote on a legislative package made up of six full-year spending bills to reopen the closed parts of the federal government as well as a stopgap funding bill for the Department of Homeland Security that would maintain existing funding levels through February 8, effectively delaying a fight over the border wall until that time.The key sticking point in the shutdown fight is the President's demand for billion in wall funding, which congressional Democrats have refused to meet.House Democrats have stressed that the measures they plan to vote on would not provide any additional funding for a border wall, leading congressional Republicans and the White House to call the effort a "nonstarter." On Thursday evening, the White House issued a veto threat against the legislation ahead of the expected House vote.As the stalemate continues, there is no end in sight to the partial shutdown, which is affecting hundreds of thousands of federal workers who have either been furloughed or have had to work without pay."We're trying to open up government," Pelosi said on Thursday.But she suggested that Democrats don't plan to budge from their refusal to allocate wall money."We're not doing a wall," Pelosi said emphatically. "Does anybody have any doubt? We are not doing a wall." 1981
